Just Exhale


Sometimes you just have to allow yourself to exhale after a twisted testicle scare, an ER visit, 3.5 hours of sleep, working an acting gig as a patient stressed out about chest pain, a youngest child's 13trh birthday, and being coach, tutor and cheerleader for 2 hours of homework about the Bill Of Rights, you just have to stop and give yourself time to decompress. Tonight I stopped, dropped and painted and plan on doing more painting after I hit the "Publish Post". Sure I'm tired. Exhausted to be exact but I realized I'm also deprived. I'm deprived of ME time. I'll sleep much better tonight after I feed my soul with some good music and art making. It'll also help tame the inner bitch I feel stirring in my stomach (or maybe that's the sliders I ate at 3AM this morning)...either way, everybody should appreciate that I've given myself a healthy timeout.

Well, was it a twisted nut? I hope he's better now!
